Over the spring and winter many perennial forage f Over the spring and winter many perennial forage fields experience high grazing pressures from waterfowl. DFWT’s Forage Enhancement program is here to help share the cost of over and re-seeding forage fields damaged by waterfowl grazing.

Cost-share is set at $80 per acre and is only available to farmers in Richmond and Delta.

Contact us at programs@dfwt.ca if you have any questions or visit the link in our bio to apply!

Blueberry season is almost here, and we sure are e Blueberry season is almost here, and we sure are excited! 🫐 

Here at DFWT one of the ways we support blueberry growers is through our Blueberry Rest Set-Aside Program, offering growers a chance to rest their fields when scorch virus impacts blueberry plants. Instead of leaving fields bare, enrolled farmers plant pollinator set-asides, rebuild soil health, and receive per-acre cost-share payments for up to 4 years, helping support a stronger next crop. 

👉 Click the link in our bio to learn more or contact us at programs@dfwt.ca if you're a blueberry farmer interested in enrollement!

Thank you to @fluevogfilms  for capturing this beautiful footage!

🐝 Happy World Bee Day! Meet the Yellow-faced Bumb 🐝 Happy World Bee Day!

Meet the Yellow-faced Bumblebee (Bombus vosnesenskii), one of the native pollinators along the west coast!

This bee is  hard at work visiting a Phacelia flower, filling up her pollen baskets (corbiculae) on her hind legs. Phacelia produces a bright purple pollen, and on a sunny spring day you might be able to spot bumblebees flying through the air carrying purple bundles on their legs! When she visits a flower, loose pollen will stick to her fuzzy body, and she'll use her legs to pack in the pollen into her pollen baskets. Only female bumblebees have this structure! 

Phacelia is one of the flowering plants we include in our Grassland Set-Aside seed mixes specifically to support pollinators like this one. Set-Asides give bees, butterflies, and other beneficial insects a refuge to forage and nest.
